A Gamma male is a fake Alpha male, he was unsuccessful as a beta getting girls and finding success and has turned to lifting and pretending to be superior than betas. They will still score with shallow women with no morality and are notable for having unprovoked hate towards anyone who doesn't buy into the false ego perspectives. A true Alpha male will gain women and success under any circumstances they are magnetic. A gamma male is a loser trying to pretend to be Alpha.
John lifts because he is insecure and can't get women to notice him. Now he hooks up with shallow skanks who cheat on him and give him STDs and he thinks he's Alpha. He's a try hard gamma male.

The third and lowest tier of male social hierarchy. Unlike the dominant alpha or the passive beta, the gamma male's hallmark traits are clinginess, possessiveness, and manipulation. Since he is unable to compete with men above his social tier, he is prone to isolating and manipulating girls, and failing that, throwing guilt trips to keep them on a short leash. While a gamma male is often a self-proclaimed "nice guy", his benevolence is merely a means to an end, which is usually trying to hook up with a girl he is obsessed with. Overly emotional and prone to feelings of unwarranted entitlement, the gamma male would rather blame all of his problems on other people than take responsibility for his own behavior. A truly worthless human being.

Gamma Males are not cool independent thinkers. That would be a Sigma Male. Gamma Males are rejected by others. Sigma Males are accepted by others yet chose to do their own thing.
Gamma Male is not the same or similar to Sigma Male

A gamma Male is the type of person to appologise for some shit they should not appologise for, they are a full man-bitch. Lower than beta male.
Alpha: bro I totally just shit in your backpack

Gamma: o sorry, I'll get that out of your way
Alpha: bro what
Gamma: sorry (laughs in that weird ass noise, like a fucked up mouse)
Alpha: our next generation is fucked if there's any more gamma males

A male of any status or tier that is a pseudo-feminist, often advocating the views of female supremacy. They do this out of either a sense of chivalry, the false belief that this belief system will benefit them somehow or as an attempt to fit in with what they believe is normative.

When asked for justifications of his feminist ideals -a gamma male will reveal that he is in fact, a neo-chivalrist. Often they put down adherents of men's rights because those men, in the gamma males point of view don't get laid.

Another typical justification for their belief is that men have more of a choice in mate selection than women. Thus, if a man is falsely accused of any crime by a woman and unjustly found guilty: that man is at fault for picking the wrong mate.

The gamma male is a hypocrite who's status as "gamma" is intended as an insult. As stated before, a gamma male can be of any status. Most typically they are effeminate introverted males who blindly accept the new status quo that women should have more legal rights than men.
When discussing:
The Sara Ylen case (who lost a court case involving her filing false rape charges against multiple men)

Brian Banks who spent 4 years incarcerated before being cleared of rape charges
The fact that men are NOT awarded custody in the majority of divorce cases
The fact that when Patrimony is awarded it is substantially less than when Alimony is awarded in similar circumstances
The fact that police are biased towards arresting men in domestic violence cases where both parties are at fault
...

A gamma male will assert that there is no problem and that the men probably had it coming anyway.
